I can't help you there. I'm running a 6000 calorie deficit so far this week and have gained 1.1kg

Malt loaf if theres no cafe stop, if theres a cafe stop then beans on toast.
Beans on toast was my favourite when I started going on club runs, at least it was all that I could afford on my pocket money. They use to cost 1/6.

Gels are actually a pain in the arse for bunch racing. Far easier just to dip your hand in your jersey pocket and pull out a handful of dates, or papaya chunks...
